Hey old pal

How've you been doing

I'm really not foolin'

I'm so glad to see you

Hey old pal

My life's been kind of crazy

I'm ready to be lazy

Hangin' around with you

Well even in the very, very worst of times

There's one thing that i know

The way to guarantee

A little peace of mind

Is a walk in the woods

A friend by your side

And here we go

Hey old pal

It's great to be here with you

The thing i'd like to give you

Is a real good time

Hey old pal

I really can't believe it

But now that you can see it

It looks just fine

What a chance to play and sing

And have some fun

The day should never end

This will be a rocky mountain holiday

With you and me

And all we can see

And all of our friends

Hey old pal

We must be daydreamin'

At least the things we're seein'

Are a dream come true

Hey there gang

It's great to be together

It just keeps gettin' better

I can promise you

This is going to be

The very best of times

And we will make it so

No more hustle and bustle

And no more telephone lines

And now that we're here

Let's grab all our gear

And off we go
